AWS iot-wireless documentation change

Service: iot-wireless · 2025-08-01 · Documentation low

File: iot-wireless/latest/developerguide/iot-lorawan-adr.md

Summary

Added documentation for LoRaWAN ADR parameters (DrMin/DrMax, TxPowerIndexMin/Max, NbTransMin/Max) and clarified regional parameter overrides

Security assessment

The changes provide operational guidance for radio parameter configuration but do not address security vulnerabilities or document security features. Focuses on technical implementation details rather than security controls.

-You cannot specify the maximum and minimum data rate limits when creating a service profile from the AWS Management Console. It can only be specified using the AWS IoT Wireless API or the AWS CLI.
+Regional parameters override service profile settings for minimum and maximum Transmit Power Index (`TxPowerIndexMin` and `TxPowerIndexMax`). For example, if you set `TxPowerIndexMin` to 14 for a device that operates in the US915 Band, the configuration you set won't be applied. To learn more about regional parameters, see [RP002-1.0.4 Regional Parameters](https://resources.lora-alliance.org/technical-specifications/rp002-1-0-4-regional-parameters).
